How are rural teachers treated?

Let’s first take a look at the teacher’s salary structure. A teacher’s salary only consists of position salary, salary grade salary, performance salary, subsidy, etc. Among them, position salary and salary grade salary are unified nationwide, regardless of Whether it is rural or urban, whether it is an economically developed area or a remote mountainous area, these two salary standards for teachers are the same. What widens the teacher salary gap is mainly performance pay and various subsidies. There will be a big gap between economically developed areas and economically weak provinces, and there will also be a big gap between rural areas and cities.

01: Job salary, job salary is related to the teacher’s professional title. For primary and secondary school seniors, the job salaries for grades 1 to 4 are: 6665 yuan, 5157 yuan, 4558 yuan, 3915 yuan. ; The salary for senior teachers in primary and secondary schools is from level 5 to level 7, and the corresponding salaries are: 3,405 yuan, 3,005 yuan, and 2,773 yuan; the salary for first-level teachers in primary and secondary schools is from level 8 to 10, with level 8 being 2,440 yuan, and level 9 being 2,174 yuan yuan, 2007 yuan for level 10; the salary for junior professional title positions is 11 to 13 yuan, and the corresponding salaries are: 1819 yuan, 1797 yuan, 1675 yuan. Calculated in this way, the salary difference between level 13 positions and level 1 positions is 4,990 yuan.

02: Salary grade salary, salary grade salary is related to the working years and the number of years in the current position, and is linked to the professional title and teaching experience. The higher the salary grade, the higher the salary.

03: Various subsidies, here is the class teacher allowance as an example. In many central and eastern regions, the class teacher subsidy is tens of yuan a month, while in developed areas like Shenzhen, the class teacher subsidy is no less than 1,500 yuan. Henan also introduced regulations last year that the monthly allowance for head teachers should be no less than 400 yuan. In many cities, teachers are provided with transportation subsidies and meal subsidies, but in rural schools, most do not have these subsidies. Although they still need to eat, Have to commute.

Speaking of subsidies, year-end bonuses have been hotly debated in recent years. Some places give teachers year-end bonuses, some don’t, some give tens of thousands to tens of thousands, and some give them tens of thousands. Some places only give out a few thousand yuan, which completely depends on the local economic situation and the importance that leaders attach to education.

04: Performance pay accounts for a large proportion in the teacher salary structure. However, the implementation standards of performance pay are different in various places. Some places implement it better, and some places do not implement it well. The payment is incomplete, which also results in teachers receiving different pay for equal work. Teachers' salaries in different places may vary widely.

Back to reality, let’s talk about the salary of rural teachers. I am a rural teacher. I have been teaching for 25 years and am a first-level teacher in primary and secondary schools. My current salary is 4,200 yuan, plus deductions for social security, provident fund, and medical insurance. Waiting for the payment, this time I saw my full salary, 5,900 yuan, in my personal tax declaration. This salary is actually not too low in the local area. If you don’t buy a house or a car, you can still support your family. It's just that I have a relatively long teaching experience, and the salary of the newly assigned teachers is not that high. The salary of the newly assigned teachers is more than 2,000, which is basically not enough for personal expenses. If I want to save some money, I can only hope for the year-end bonus.

Compared with teachers in urban areas, rural teachers cannot make up classes (because there are few students, and parents do not pay much attention to them), nor can they sell materials. There are only about ten people in a class, and selling materials is meaningless. This is what rural and rural areas do. This is the reason why the income gap among urban teachers is relatively large.
